1. I tried my Huawei Mate 8, and the bottom of the screen wasn't really yellow. But when I
took a picture of my Mate 8 using another phone, the screen's bottom area did look a
little dark in the picture. I think it was probably the lighting. You can't always trust
pictures online.
2. I checked my Huawei Mate 8 after reading posts online. Maybe it was little dark at the
bottom of the screen, but I never noticed it at all before. I think the color on the Huawei
Mate 8 looks much more comfortable than all my previous phones.
3. I never noticed any yellow at the bottom of the screen. Why do you have to make your
phone display an all white screen? That's not what a phone's supposed to do anyway.
4. My phone had the same issue, but it was only very slight. After I dragged the color
temperature slider (under Settings > Display > Color temperature) to the right end
(towards Cold), the problem was solved! It really worked. You guys might want to give
it a try.
5. Almost all LCD screens have this issue – maybe it's the screen suppliers, but I can use
the phone fine. I checked online. Basically everyone's phone has the same problem,
whatever the brand.
2.2.18 Why is my phone screen red (especially with a white
background) and why are the colors too bright?
Your phone uses a high color gamut (wide color gamut) screen, which may seem slightly
discolored when viewed from a side angle. This is a normal phenomenon and not a phone
quality issue. Your phone screen is supplied by the world's best screen manufacturers LG and
JDI, and its quality is guaranteed by Huawei's rigorous tests, so that you can rest assured.
A phone screen can display warm or cold colors. You can adjust the screen color temperature
on your phone according to your preferences by going to Settings > Display > Color
temperature.
In addition, your phone screen has 95% color saturation, producing richer color information
and more vivid images.
